History
itelligence AG was founded in Bielefeld in 1989 by Herbert Vogel and Wolfgang Schmidt under the name S&P Consult. The enterprise focused on SAP consulting. Four years later, namely in July 1993, the company changed its name to Schmidt Vogel and Partner (SVP). In 1995, SVP was awarded certification as an SAP R/3 system house operating at multinational level and was accepted into SAP’s circle of value-added resellers (VARs).

In 1999, the corporate organization was changed to a public limited company and listed on the stock exchange in Frankfurt, Germany. The merger with APCON AG in 2000 resulted in the creation of itelligence AG. After its initial public offering, the enterprise extended its portfolio and became an international SAP full-service provider in 2003. In October 2007, itelligence AG announced its partnership with NTT DATA Europe GmbH & Co. KG and supported its takeover bid. After the term of acceptance had ended, NTT Data Europe owned more than 75% of itelligence shares.

Today, itelligence AG is one of SAP global services, global hosting and global application management services partners with distribution agreements at local level as well. The company achieved SAP Accreditation for Active Quality Management in January 2011. Nowadays, itelligence AG is an SAP Special Expertise Partner for 13 applications and services including SAP Business Process Management, SAP ERP Financials and SAP NetWeaver ID Management.
